It's the End of the World As We Know It

Last February 13, Sister Lucia died in her convent in Portugal. Sister Lucia was the last remaining survivor of the trio who were given the secrets of Fatime by Mother Mary. Here's the interesting part: It was written (3rd Secret of Fatima?) that before she will pass away, she will first see a sign that the end of times has begun. And before she died, she has been ill for three months and that puts us back to December. And it was in December that the terrible Tsunami disaster struck southeast Asia. Can the tsunami be the sign of more things to come?

Also, it was also written during the time of John XXIII that there will be three more popes who will reign before the end of times, and John Paul II is the last of the three. I don't know if it's true. Perhaps, more research into this is needed.

And so what if it's the end of the world, I feel that living here in Manila is already the end of the world. More like Sodom and Gomorrah to me.
